How to Watch Candy Shorts: Step-by-Step Guide

Here is how to watch Candy Shorts, step by step, on desktop, iPhone and Android. It takes about two minutes to get from zero to your first episode, and the first two episodes of almost every series are free.

What you need

• A phone, tablet or computer with a modern browser.
• A free Candy.ai account.
• For locked episodes: Candy Premium and tokens.

Step 1: Create your account

Go to Candy.ai and sign up with your email or Google account. Candy is an 18+ platform, so you will be asked to confirm your age. Registration is free and takes less than a minute.

Step 2: Open the Shorts section

From the main menu, open Shorts. You will see a vertical feed of trailers and series covers, organized by category. You can also filter between Candy characters, Candy creators and other characters.

Step 3: Pick a series

Tap a cover to open the series page. Here you will see the number of episodes and which ones are free. If you are undecided, our ranking of the best Candy Shorts is a good place to start.

Step 4: Watch the free episodes

Episodes 1 and 2 play immediately. Watch them fully: most series reveal their main twist in episode 2, and that is usually the best moment to decide if you want to continue.

Step 5: Unlock the rest

When you reach episode 3 you will be asked to upgrade to Premium. Once you are a member, each locked episode costs tokens. See our pricing guide for the exact numbers.

Step 6: Talk to the star

After an episode ends you can message the character and continue the story in chat. This conversation is separate from your other chats, so experiment freely.
